And running against media darling Cruz.  

Texas being a red state, I have no idea how he got as close as he did in that race, other than what I mentioned before.

I'm disappointed the first response wasn't "well, you've got 3X as much hair"

And given most stylists are probably women, I find it hard to believe women are actively discriminating against other women. We've definitely ran out of things to complain about.

I sent the tweet to my wife. She used to have short hair. Her salon charged her for a mens cut.

Women paying $95 for a haircut, but think health insurance and college should be free.

 

 

Gotcha.

Because it's Ted Cruz and after his 2016 run where Trump hit him with low blow after low blow and he still metaphorically sucked him off when told to, no one respects him.

Not to mention this:

When I get my hair cut, it takes about 20 minutes.  When my wife does, it's like a two-hour affair.

Elizabeth Warren wants to make the internet a public entity, and spend $85B doing it.

Again, it's just sad how 80% of America will believe whatever the media says (which is why the media carry water for the Dems and Repubs is so dangerous). 

And this is a perfect example - how can anyone look at their internet service and not say "hmmm, don't really see a problem....certainly not one worth spending $85B on"?  I understand it's easy to get lies and false promises about much more complicated things past people, but people are on the internet like hours every day.  How can they fall for that bullshit?

If the progressives get there way, gubmit will be running healthcare, energy and utilities which account for like 30% of the GDP.  And govt is already 12% of GDP. 

So that's 40% plus even before the inevitable takeover of the financial sector.   But that's not socialism though, right?  A bunch of lawyers, most of whom never worked in a company much less ran one, planning out our economy - how could that not be a good thing?

And people who bitch about the postal service and grouse about the utilities will vote for it.

Not sure if this was already brought up, but supposedly there as a movie made about liberals hunting and killing off MAGA types. The ads that were set to be aired were pulled.

Are we really at that point?

So wait, the people who feel the need to announce a "personal point of privilege" are hunting down the people they believe to be hoarding guns?

Sure, I'll see it.  I like a good story of fiction.
